Much of the time but not for every condition. It depends on the severity of the toe deformity involved. They relieve pain by removing the mechanical cause — friction and pressure. When irritation stops, inflammation decreases and tissue can heal. However, I always recommend seeing your podiatrist or doctor for foot pain.
